This PR adds optional support for using the ESP-IDF CA certificate bundle when running on Arduino-ESP32 3.x (ESP-IDF 5.x).
✅ New Feature: Bundled Certificate Support
A new configuration field enables usage of the built-in CA bundle:
or
cfg.use_bundled_certs = true;When enabled:
setCACertBundle()✅ Fully Backwards Compatible
root_caandunsafemodes continue to function normally✅ Runtime-Safe Detection
Weak symbol declarations prevent build failures when the CA bundle is not available.
If the symbols are missing, esp32FOTA logs a message and falls back gracefully.
Summary
This PR introduces a secure, modern HTTPS configuration path using the ESP-IDF root certificate store, without breaking existing setups or requiring code changes for current users.
